I'm currently out to purchase a skyline r34 GT-T. Been to alot of car yards and a few private sellers and test driven a few which have been stock. I want the r34 for a great street car also for drag(hoping to get 12s).

Bit disappointed when i took them for a test drive, hoping they would go a bit quicker. They seem really heavy and it feels like it would run a 15s. From what i have heard from mates/Aquantainces is that its not worth buying if you want it for dragging, i should look towards a Jap spec s15. Ive read the 100's of s15 vs r34 threads each providing the same info.

Can some people here who own r34gtt's list what mods they've done, and what times they have recieved, (kw would also be handy).

Thankyou for your time.

mate,

as what Fujiwara said do a good search on the RB25 dyno result thread.

R34 with get you a to b in a quick fashion way, i have a few mates who uses them as dailys, including me :banana:

and obviously stockies wouldnt be any good for drag etc.. it all depend what you wanna do with it.

if you want a car for drags, and want 12s 1/4 mile times, then this will be a LOT easier with AWD than any RWD car, otherwise all your money will go on tires and suspension in order to get the power to the ground...

the S15s are a lot lighter but the RB25 neo has a lot more potential...

if you want 12s 1/4's why not go for a GTR? you'd already be in the high 12's that way and probably for the same amount of money - or less if you get an R32GTR. That'll be quicker than most s15s you'll ever see, even before you modify it.

Engine Management, boost controller, 3" exhaust, with dump/front pipe and a hi-flow cat, FMIC, injectors, Pod Filter and drop in cams will get you a pretty tuff R34 Taxi...

If you can mate, get a manual... I've got a turbo, manual taxi and after six months I haven't looked back!

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
